The Kennel Union of Southern Africa is South Africa's official Kennel Club

Our Aim

The Kennel Union of Southern Africa aims to serve both its members and South African society, as a whole, by promoting the improvement and well-being of dogs, by emphasizing the importance of purebred dogs; responsible breeding of all dogs; by promoting responsible ownership to all ages and sectors of society by reinforcing the necessity of educating both dog and owner, through the Canine Good Citizen Scheme.

Background

The South African Kennel Club, now the Kennel Union of Southern Africa, was founded in 1891 through the combination of the Southern African Kennel Club of Port Elizabeth (founded 1883) and the South African Kennel Club of Cape Town (founded 1889)

Present Activities

Over four hundred Championship or non-Championship events are licensed annually. Aspects of dog sport administered by the Kennel Union are: Competitive Breed (Beauty/Conformation) Shows. Competitive Working Disciplines: Agility (contact & Non-contact), Obedience Classes, Working Trials, Dog Jumping, Dog Carting (Draughtwork), Tracker and Field Trials. Although Breed Shows are limited to purebred dogs any dog, purebred or not, if registered or recorded at the kennel Union, may enter the Working Disciplines.
